Get a head unit and good front splits and you'll be amazed at the difference it makes. even a headunit on stock stereo makes a difference which surprised me!

if u get just a head unit man and u plan 4 amps and subs later just make sure wat ever head unit u buy has at least 2 RCA pre outs (3 pre outs would b better again tho would save using RCA splitters ect....)

least that way its much easier 2 add on down the track wen ur ready.

Well no new updates other than that the speakers and head unit have been fitted to the car.

I was considering doing diff, but now I'm tossing up whether or not I should sell it so I can get back on two wheels because I miss it too much.

Just don't know if I can justify selling it when I've thrown a lot of money into it over the past yr.

I pretty much have access to the gf's car quite often, and I can also arrange with my bro to use his car every 2nd week because he works FIFO.

Not sure yet. It's a lot of money I've spent on the car and by selling it'd be a waste, but it'd mean that I can pay off a loan and be debt free and save money on fuel/insurane/rego etc.

Tough decision when bikes are really where my passion is at, but I do enjoy having the car too :(

I've got a way to go with rebuilds etc before I think I'd really miss it :p

But I think I've made the decision to keep the car for now. Rather than rushing to sell just to pay out some debt and then having to save for something else I'll hold onto it... then focus to pay out debt and then focus on getting 2 wheels (and continuing to mod the car :p)

Pulled the front mud flaps off this weekend as one of them had torn nearly 3/4 the way across from going over speed humps etc (and it being too old/stiff).
Still have the rear ones on for the moment though.
Unsure if I should replace them all with nice new ones or just ditch em.

Ditch em, they make your car more dirty being white but they are ugly lol.
